-u creates an Undefined with STT_NOTYPE. When an object file provides another Undefined with STT_TLS for the same symbol, Symbol::resolve only updated binding, leaving type as STT_NOTYPE. This caused sym.isTls() to return false in postScanRelocations, skipping TLS GOT entry creation and leading to an out-of-range R_X86_64_GOTTPOFF error. Fix: in resolve(Undefined), when the existing type is STT_NOTYPE, adopt the incoming type.
